There is obviously not a definite number because there are so many kinds of insects that we are not familiar with yet. However, approximate numbers mention as low as 2 million up to as high as 30 million. Scientists cannot still determine the correct number, but it is somewhere between 2 and 30 million species.
Answer: The probability is 100%.
Explanation: The chromosome X is related to gender. A man carries two different chromosomes (XY) and a woman carries two similar chromosomes (XX). The offspring of a couple will inherited:
- If it is a boy, he inherites the chromosome Y from his father and X from his mother;
- If it a girl, she inherites X from her father and X from her mother;
In the question, the woman is color-blind, which means she carries the recessive alleles: 
The man, on the other hand, is normal, so his X-linked genotype will be: 
.
Now, since they have a daughter, she inherited her double X from each of her parents, which means she inherited one 
from her mother and one 
from her father.
So, the daughter's genotype can only be heterozygotic in other words, the probability is 100%.
Answer:
The correct answer is option a. "Plasmodial slime mold".
Explanation:
Plasmodial slime molds, are comprised of a single "supercell" with thousands or millions of nuclei within it. These organisms are formed by the fusion of multiple flagellated cells. The formation of these single celled organisms depend on the presence of enough food source. Typically, plasmodial slime molds have a diameter of 3 to 4 centimeters, but they can growth up to 30 centimeters.
Answer:
D. I, IV, VI, and VII
Explanation:
DNA polymerase III has both 5' to 3' polymerization activity and 3' to 5' exonuclease activity (the proofreading). DNA pol III requires divalent magnesium ions for its polymerization and proofreading activities. Here, the magnesium ions serve as cofactor.
DNA polymerase III cannot start the process of synthesis of new DNA strand de novo and uses an RNA primer synthesized by primase enzyme. The polymerization activity of DNA polymerase III elongates the RNA primer in 5' to 3' direction. The primers are removed by 5' to 3' exonuclease activity of DNA polymerase I.
During polymerization, the DNA polymerase III uses existing DNA strand as a template. The four dNTPs namely deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP), deoxycytidine triphosphate (dCTP), deoxyguanosine triphosphate (dGTP) and deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) are added to the RNA primer according to the sequence of DNA template.
